Twitter users are losing their minds over pictures that recently surfaced of Rihanna and a potential new love interest.
The singer and a dark-haired mystery man were photographed kissing in a pool inside a private luxury villa in Spain, TMZ reported, and social media quickly started playing matchmaker.
Aside from tabloid reports that she briefly dated Drake late last year, it’s been a while since the “Unapologetic” singer has been in a serious relationship, and the Twitterverse is now acting like overprotective parent excited at the prospect of their little girl settling down.
Rihanna’s last serious relationship in the spotlight was with Chris Brown in 2009 — and we all know how that ended. She went on to date L.A. Dodgers Matt Kemp the following year, before rekindling her romance with Brown, despite him being on probation for the domestic assault against her.
Given that rocky history, Twitter users were so thrilled by the new displays of romance that they decided to throw her a party … well, sort of. Hence, the creation of the #RihannaHasAManParty hashtag.

No word yet on who the mystery man is, but there is certainly speculation. One Twitter user suggested he could be Spanish pro footballer, Isco.
